MAD VERONA.
Her Thirst for b Cor OF q San
~FranciscO Journalist.

Los ANGELES. Dec. 9.-Verona
Baldwin is in this city and declares
that she is not through with
"Lcuky" Baldwin yet. Verona is
very anxious over a challenge she
sent to young Hearst, of the Exam
liner, last Summer, which Hearst
ignored. The language of the
challenge is after the dramatic man,
ner of the girl and the sanguinary
part reads as follows:
When l was about to begin a work
of salvation for my fellow-sufferers,
your paper comes forward with base
lies to prevent me from effecting a
warfare which I am intended to pre-
form. Now, since your ABDOMINAL
newspaper has stolen my means
of sustenance, without which I a
only become at hindrance instead of
a help to my fellow-women, 1 hereby
declare you must take my life. You
are, W. R.. Hearst, a coward, a liar
and a thief, and 1 challenge you to
meet me upon an open field of battle
on the Mexican frontier, the duel to be
fought with repeating rifles. Were
it possible l would defray the ex-
penses so incurred. You, sir, choose
your W seconds where you will, T
shall select mine after I shall have
crossed the border, where 1 know

A Tender.hearted Reporter.

There is more ender-heartedness
around loose than perhaps is gener-
ally supposed. A young newspaper
man who came on one of the papers
here about four or five months ago
had occasion shortly after beginning
work to write up the operations
of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals.
He was so much impressed with the
stories of what the society had ao.
complished during its existence and so
deeply touched by some of the more
striking illustrations of the work.
which were detailed to him by an
eloquent champion of the cause, that
he became almost as enthusiastic on
the subject as Mr.. Bergh himself,
and aver since has employed his
time while walking along the streets
in looking out for brutal drivers
abusing WORKOUT horses, or horses
being compelled to draw larger
loads than their strengh would al
low. By intelligent persistency he
has gotten on to ONE phases of
cruelty to the animal creation never
dreamed of by the enthusiasts who
started the movement here. The
other day he threatened to have the
Italian who vends chestnuts on the
corner of one of the downtown
streets arrested and hauled up. He
had bought five cents worth of
chestnuts, and on opening one of
them he found that the hard. hearted
Italian had recklessly roasted o poor
little worm. He concluded not to
call a policeman, after some discus
sion, and went away, impressively
warning the italian never to do my
thing of this kind again.

Coming along by the Treasury we
found an art store where really ex-
quisite importations are TO be seen,
and among them a photograph of
Mrs. James Brown Potter. There
upon a resident who knows every
one smilingly queried whether we
heard of the little lunch Mrs. Potter
attended the day after the famous
reading of '"Ostler joe"
"She was very indignant, natu-
rally, over the treatment she had
received, and exclaimed excitedly to
her hostess, an intimate friend and
magnificent old lady whose dignity
is only equalled by her wit. 1T was
all a conspiracy to ruin me! 1t was
a clique of envious, malicious people
who wish to put me down. Do You
think that any audience can really
resist me? Can any one really dis
pnte my genius? None Of nv
friends dispute that I have dramatic
genius equal to Ristori or Rachel!"
'Gently, gently, my dearl' said
e aged friend in a mild voice; O
are a very beautiful and amiable
woman, that every one admits; but
if you compare your genius to that
of Ristori, l n only say that it is
she who is the Potter and Won ara
but the clay! "-W Washington Elk.

drifting in the same boat on the political
current. As An evidence of this we take
q recent editorial in the New York Star.
The Star says of tae mugwumps: "They
are simply democratic neophytes whose
political instruction and fellowship are not
yet complete. They are changing their
allegiance because republican practices
repel them and democratic methods at
tract them. In course of time, as their
prejudces fade away. they will become
firm adherents of democratic principles
and valuable members of the party.
Many of those who were republicans
prior to '76 or 'S4 are now firmly fixed
in the democratic faith. Their brethren
who are following in their footsteps
should be encouraged. not repelled BY
democrats who care for the ascendency OF
their party"
